On the day of the event, the group will meet and combine dishes to create a fantastic feast! Host houses will rotate from person to person, whoever is willing to provide a setting.

How about we meet at the Bel Aire Diner at 21st and Broadway for an organizational meeting? Maybe on a Saturday or Sunday? I just cooked chicken sausage with a wine and balsamic vinaigrette plus broccoli and served it over shells.

Hey guys, I think the best thing to do is maybe meet at a diner to plan it out. This way we can meet everyone who's interested in person and work out details and stuff. What does everyone think of that suggestion? Lemme know and I can suggest a place / we can get this started.

I'm down for either option- maybe we can pick a theme and have everyone discuss their meal plans prior? That may help narrow down on repeat dishes and give everyone a little idea of what they are in for.

I've regularly hosted dinners for friends at my place in Astoria and I usually make all the food myself. Potluck is fun and cheaper, but you can end up with a really eclectic mix of dishes in terms of both style and quality depending on the inclinations and abilities of those you invite. In any case, I'd definitely be up for sharing some cooking. I make my own pasta sauce using red peppers an sausage from scratch, but I can also do something like a biryani or a casserole it just depends on what folks are looking for. Just let me know what you guys are thinking and we can coordinate.
